Outdoor structures on the West Coast are exposed to high rainfall, strong winds, moisture and coastal conditions, making good design, appropriate materials and quality construction particularly important.
Deck foundations, fixings, drainage, timber selection and exposure all need to be considered when creating an outdoor area designed for long-term use.
With over 32 years of West Coast building experience, Ken Drummond brings practical local knowledge to every deck and pergola project, creating outdoor spaces designed around your home, property and local conditions.
